Thanksgiving Rustic Place Card Holders

Let's talk RUSTIC place card holders for the big Thanksgiving meal.  

Martha Stewart offers this rustic place card.

If you are handy with a saw, you could do this one from Sarah Drake.

The Joy of DIY offers this one -

All of these would be easy and inexpensive to make.

Left Over Halloween Candy

Isn't this cute?  I found several of these legs used for place cards.  

Looks like it would be easy to do and I know the boys will love it! 

Matter of fact, I could go ahead and make them for Thanksgiving.  It will be here before we can turn around! 

All these pictures came from Pinterest  - I love Pinterest!!

Resting from Thanksgiving

This pretty much sums up our day here today!  After yesterday, all of us have rested and played on the computer or watched TV.  No Black Friday shoppers here!

Yesterday we had a really nice meal:

Turkey

Dressing

Gravy

Green beans

Macaroni and Cheese

Yeast rolls

Crustless pumpkin pie

Brownies

NY Cheesecake (the favorite of all involved!)

I asked my family what they would want different next year.  One of the boys said rice and Dennis said mashed potatoes - a definite carbohydrate family here!  :)

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving as I did!
